Here are some ideas for the different rooms in a home:
NEW:
~ Color Consultation
Are you struggling with finding the right colors for a room or wondering which palette to choose that would unify all the rooms in your home? The task is daunting and you'll probably second guess yourself constantly! Let me assist you in making the right decision - I know you'll be surprised and really happy
with the results. Color consultations start at only $25! Please - don't do Beige again!!!
~ Faux Finishing
I use my own unique styles of faux finishing. Create interest, texture, depth and life in a wall by simply painting in more than one color. Affordable and unique - no cookie cutter rag rolling or sponging (unless that is what you'd like off course!)
KIDS BEDROOMS
~ The bedroom comes alive when whimsical characters
play around in a forest or castle and fairies fly through
colorful
flowers.
~ A shelf with some old cars, trains and planes that his daddy
once played with, can be painted in a boy’s
bedroom.
~ Boys love dinosaurs and anything to do with pirates, cars, planes, trains, trucks and bikes.
~
Create the ultimate Girly-girl room complete with a mural of a dressing
table with Hollywood bulb lights, fancy
lights, Hollywood posters,
lipstick tubes, powder puffs
~ Little girls are enthralled with fantasy princesses, fairies and unicorns.
~ Personalize the mural by having your child's likeness painted into the mural.
BABY NURSERIES
~
A lighthearted outdoors theme with little baby animals running around
creates the calm but fun and interesting
space a baby would need.
~ Imagine that they could almost hear the
farmyard friends or animals found in the zoo.
~ Make a nursery rhyme
or fairy tale come to life.
~ Spend time at the teddy bear picnic
~ A playful border around the room instead of a mural?
~ Once upon a time.......
PLAYROOM or BASEMENT
~ Imagine an enchanted forest or a nautical theme.
~ Most kids love sci-fi and space scenes with planets, moons and stars or dragons trying to find their way into a
castle.
~ Boys
(and dads) have their favorite sports team and would love their team jersey, a
football or basketball,
baseball, glove and bat and even their closets
painted to look
like lockers.
~ Superman, Spiderman, Batman and other super heroes are
always welcome friends to save them.
~ Play on the sand at the beach
~ Swim in an underwater fantasy
~ Ahoy matey in a Pirate theme
~ Lasso those cows in a western scene
~ Discover in a Science laboratory
~ Imagine with the Spy kids
~ 4 Seasons
~ Music motifs: jazz, blues, rock, hip hop, alternative, etc.
~ Watch the magician and his rabbit doing various tricks
~ Music memories of the 50’s, 60’s, 70’s, 80’s, 90’s
~ Travel USA like Route 66 scenes
~ Go camping around the fire, tent and escape the bear
~ Learn with alphabet hot air balloons
~ Crawl around with insects & bugs
~ Winter wonderland
~ Have fun at the Carnival/festival/fair
~ Join the Circus
~ Summer fun in the backyard
~ Pier scene with fishermen, seagulls, boats, water
~ All time favorite children’s books/authors like Dr. Seuss
~ Artist’s tool box
~ Life on the farm
~ Kids in a Candy store
~ At the Zoo
~ An Aquarium
TEEN ROOMS
Teenagers
need to show their independence and individuality and rather than
plastering their walls with posters of the latest rock stars, consider
getting their input on what kind of mural they would like. You’ll be
surprised at how much they enjoy the process of planning and designing
their own space.
~ Older boys like space and planet scenes, musical themes and sports related topics.
~ Surf's-up surfing theme with surfboards, beach, sun and sand.
~ Camouflage
~ Rock star themes are hugely popular
~ Older girls always like cloud and sky rooms.
~ Or flowers and butterflies
~ Or unicorns and horses.
BATHROOMS
Bathrooms
are great areas for murals.
~ Indulge your kid’s sense of fun by painting
an underwater seascape or aquarium to cover all the walls, or have
a
nautical scene with the tub being the pirate ship.
~ Kids love the beach
so paint some surfboards, sea animals and a dune-buggy hurling over some
sand dunes.
~ Can't you just see row upon row of books lining the walls all the way to the ceiling to create your own
"library".
~ Large flowers
OTHER ROOMS IN THE HOME
~ Turn a small dining room into a French bistro
or a small hallway into a narrow side street down Paris.
~ A
shelf containing old tin cans, bottles, vases, cookie jars, glasses or
family heirlooms can be painted on an
uninteresting kitchen door or
wall.
~ If you have a strange wall where no piece of furniture fits,
try a classic niche to create an interesting
architectural feature -
fill it with a lovely vase with fresh flowers, a statue or books and
reading glasses.
Perhaps you’ve envisioned an archway through that wall
into a cozy
library with old books, maps, globes,
lamps and a comfy reading chair?
~ Maybe you’d love to hold onto summer for just a little bit longer by
having a uplifting secret garden beyond a
wrought iron gate painted on
your wall.
~ How about spending time in a seaside cottage overlooking crashing waves.
~ KITCHEN BACK SPLASH -
No need for expensive tile - try painting something fun in your kitchen and be different!
The themes and topics are endless and with your imagination we can create a wonderful,
magical, nurturing space in your home.
